So i was curious to see how many websites are hosted on the same IP where my 2 domains are.
I have used this tool
viewdns.info/reverseip
and
https://www.tcpiputils.com/reverse-ip
to get a result.

onw says 2,789 domains on same ip adress
the other 1,874

Was surprise on that amount !
Question :
a) how acurate are those results ?
b) are those domains hosted also hosted by my hosting company ?

thanks

Hello,

there is nothing unusual in your results if you are on a shared hosting plan.
I cannot tell you how acurate are those results, but shared hosting providers use only few IPs in front of their servers.
Domains are maybe not hosted by your hosting provider, but they use the same hosting plan for their websites

Some times many of the domains just point the particular IP address but they are not actually hosted on the server.

It is pretty common if this is a shared-hosting server. Usually web hosting providers monitor if the server is not overloaded and do not allow new users on it if it is overloaded and full.

You can also host that many websites on a VPS or a dedicated server as there is no added domains limitation. However, that number of domains may be very small and simple for hosting on a VPS.

Exactly, if you are in a shared hosting plan. But if you are using a dedicated server/ VPS then that time you need to be alarmed. ahaha

I think it is a shared hosting server there and it is really a big shared one.
I remember in the past I checked my site on a shared hosting from Hostgator and it was about 1,121 websites hosting on their IP address.
and I don't think how they can manage a large number of websites like that.
